Dear RIPE Atlas anchor pilot participants,
there is so much going on: new hosts, new article, and RIPE66 coming up!
* Phase two of the pilot program is going steady!
I have heard definite confirmations from 5 hosts: Marco, Sasha, Yves,
Fabian and Jens.
Some have already ordered the equipment, and for the others: link

Once you have the box, here are the instructions about the set-up:

We still have spare capacity for a few more hosts in Phase Two,
so if there is interest, please let me know.
* We have published the results of the research into virtualization
capabilities, done as a graduation project by Luigi Corsello:

As it says in the article, we are still performing further tests with
regards to time stability aspects of measurements in virtualized
environment.
* See you at RIPE66!
During the upcoming RIPE meeting in Dublin (ripe66.ripe.net)
RIPE NCC staff will do the regular presentations to give an update
on the progress of our services.
However, this is also an opportunity to meet IRL the anchors hosts and
other active users within RIPE Atlas community.
How many of you are going to be in Dublin, and are you interested in
having an informal meeting? Any preference for timing?
I will submit a proposal for BoF session to the programme committee,
but if the timing of that slot is not good for us, we can do it even
more informal, over lunch or in one of the coffee breaks.
Additionally, there are other meetings where we might meet:

Looking forward to hearing from you!
